Vietnam visa for Tajik citizens: urgent cut-offs in Dushanbe time
Standard takes 5 to 7 working days. The urgent speeds use Vietnamese working days, which start at 8:00 in Vietnam, or 6:00 in Dushanbe.

|---|---|
| Same day (Vietnam 14:15) | 12:15 |

| 1 working day (Vietnam 18:00) | 16:00 |
Example: you order on Tuesday at 7:00 in Dushanbe, which is 9:00 on Tuesday in Vietnam. Emergency arrives by 8:30, Super Urgent by 9:30 and Same day by 16:00, all in Dushanbe time. Ordered on Tuesday at 14:00 instead (16:00 in Vietnam), Emergency still arrives by 15:30, but Super Urgent and Same day have passed their cut-offs: Super Urgent arrives on Wednesday at 9:00 and Same day on Wednesday at 12:00.

Visa on arrival for Tajik citizens
Tajik citizens can use visa on arrival only when flying into Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang or Cam Ranh. You need an approval letter before you board and pay a $25 or $50 stamping fee at the airport.
It does not work for cruise ports or land borders. For most trips the e-visa is simpler; you can compare both when you choose a service.
Vietnam embassy in Tajikistan
You do not need an embassy for an e-visa, which is issued online. For consular help, check the list of Vietnamese missions on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website (mofa.gov.vn) for the one that covers Tajikistan.
Tips for Tajik travelers
Two points help Tajik travelers: using the small time gap, and ignoring claims that do not apply to the e-visa.
Two hours is a small gap
Two hours behind Vietnam means Vietnam's cut-offs on your clock are only two hours earlier: Same day at 12:15 and Emergency at 15:30. An order placed in your morning or early afternoon keeps every speed open.
Sponsor and island claims do not apply
Some pages say Tajiks need a company sponsor, or can stay 30 days on one island without a visa. Neither applies to a holiday e-visa, which needs only your passport, a portrait photo and your trip details.
eVisaVietnam.com is a private visa service operated by TK VIET NAM., JSC, not the Vietnamese government. You can apply yourself at evisa.gov.vn for US$25. If you want your files checked and a delivery time backed by a full refund, apply for your e-visa with us.
